I've scoured the internet and cannot find a good answer...Does Air Asia require passengers to be Vaccinated against CoVid to be able to board? (I've found on board and arrival requirements by destination - but cannot find whether they have relaxed this vaccination requirement to board.)

TLDR : Answer Summary
As of the latest updates, Air Asia does not require passengers to be vaccinated against COVID-19 to board their flights, unless the destination itself mandates vaccination for entry. Most commenters have confirmed that the airline has relaxed any such requirements, focusing instead on the regulations that may apply upon arrival at the passengers' destination.

Thai embassy websites and even the TAT website does this. Instead of removing this information from their website, they hold onto the information about the 1 day long vaccine mandate to enter Thailand, which applied on January 9, 2023 and was quickly revoked.

No other country in the world does this. It's like they don't want to move on from Covid,so they keep outdated information showing or word things in such a way as to give the impression that the lifting of restrictions is only temporary, in order to facilitate tourism.

What you will find is Air Asia cabin crew wearing their muzzles on board. I don't think the crew will ever be allowed to ditch their masks. European and American carriers stopped requiring their crew to wear masks like 18 months ago.
Paul *******
The Air Asia website deliberately tries to keep people in the dark by keeping the old information up on their website.

When you make a booking, it also says you need to wear a mask on board and at the airport, but this is equally NOT true anymore.

I think they do this deliberately to spread fear, create confusion and be ready for when the next state of emergency comes around so they can mandate all this nonsense again.

not sure who took poison. I'd not recommend that. Nor would I recommend falling for conspiracy theories based on nonsense. ๐Ÿ™„

The Covid vaccines are poison. A lot of people have died after taking them. Smart people like me never took any and are the picture of perfect health. I never even wore a mask and I never "caught" Covid despite being in crowded areas and all. How do you explain that?

exactly and so much information being released now, plus the fact Ivermecton could have saved thousands of lives, but you know sheep ๐Ÿ‘ will be sheep ๐Ÿ‘ ๐Ÿ˜‰

odd random comment. You don't make sense.

@Lynnette ******
do your research on the poison they all insist on giving you

sadly, it was not a hoax. Our NHS hospital and testing labs are pretty accurate identifying viruss. Fyi We are still admiting seriously ill COVID patients to hospital here in UK. But nowhere near as many as before.
Paul *******
@Lynnette ******
The tests can't identify anything. Find out what the inventor of the PCR test said about their accuracy. They were never supposed to be used to test for viral matter. Besides, anything can test positive using PCR if you run it through enough cycles.

@Paul ******
no one's talking about the PCR test. The labs who specialise in identifying virus's do completely different tests. But to describe an identified virus as a hoax is utter nonsense. Imagine getting so ill you required hospitalisation and the doctor decides as you think it's a hoax "ok. If you think it's a hoax. Go home".
Paul *******
Lynnette MunozIt is a hoax. The ones getting sick are vaccinated. The whole thing was a gigantic human rights abusing SCAM from the beginning. Nurses and doctors were doing dancing videos during the first few weeks/months!

They do not check for this, unless your destination requires it.
Brandon ************
Unless you're flying to a place that requires it, the airline itself has no such requirement.

As of yesterday, no.
